Actor James Van Der Beek, best known for his starring role in US teen
drama Dawson's Creek, has died aged 48 after being diagnosed with bowel
cancer.

"Our beloved James David Van Der Beek passed peacefully this morning,"
his family said in a statement posted to his social media accounts. "He
met his final days with courage, faith, and grace."

The star was diagnosed with the disease in the latter half of 2023 but
only revealed the news in November 2024.

The father of six starred in multiple popular shows and films in the
late 1990s and early 2000s, including the cult classic Dawson's Creek
and Varsity Blues.
